A cup and ring-marked stone lies at the south of Corskellie Farm. It was found in 1990 by the farmer of Corskellie, whilst clearing ground for a new farm building, when a large boulder was turned over exposing many cup-marks on its lower face. The large, roughly rectangular boulder measures 2.5 m x 2 m and 1 m at its maximum height, with three quartz veins running across the cup-marked face. A total of about 60 carved motifs features have been identified, including about 32 cup-marks, the two largest being 20 cm x 4.5 cm and 19 cm x 3.5 cm, located at the south end of the panel. About a quarter, mostly on one half of the stone, have a tail between the cup and the ring, and many of the cups in this half are symmetrically deeper at one side, with small weathered grooves on the opposite side. The cup-marked stone was recorded in November 2020 by Scotland's Rock Art Project.
